The Princess Provides Some Background Information
Levi Strauss & Co. was founded by Mr. Levi Strauss himself in 1853, when he decided to open a dry goods store in San Francisco, USA. He and a Navada tailor patented the technique of putting rivets in the pants for extra strenth in 1973...and thus, the Levi jeans were born. Back in those days, jeans weren’t called jeans, but ’’waist overalls’’! The word jeans didn’t hit until around 1950’s. Not only does Levi Strauss make jeans, but also shoes, socks, belts, wallets, watches and outerwear. They are licenced to sell the Docker and Slates brand also!
So Princess, Do You Buy Levis?
No, I don’t. And I will tell you why. It’s not because I don’t like the Levi brand. They are wonderful jeans that fit well, and come in all styles, fits, and shades. The wear well also, and even when they do get ragged, they still have a sexy look. (Levis do tend to shrink a bit, so use caution when drying.) The reason I don’t buy them anymore is the price tag.
When I was in highschool, which was only a few years ago, you weren’t dog poop if you didn’t have that little red tag hanging off of your right buttock. I understand now that I can get cute, trendy jeans for half the price elsewhere. That means two for one to me!
So, Will The Princess Recommend Levis?
Yes, I will, because of the quality, and that’s only if you have more money than sense. Shop around, and look at the bargins out there. I know how to look good without spending a fortune, and trust me, it pays to be a cheapskape. I have more money for other things, things besides jeans at least. I was going to give Levis a 5 star rating, but I am forced to remove one star due to the shrinkage and the price tag. Buy them if you want, they are worth the money...just remember that there are plenty of other jeans out there that are just as nice, for half the price!
Made that last one rhyme, huh?
